Akon (the boy in blue) interacting with one of our volunteers |
After sharing a Bible story at Moore
Park with a group of kids, one boy wanted to stick around and look through the
Beginner's Bible. As the rest of the kids went with the staff to play tag,
Nicole stayed with Akon who is around 9 years old to answer his inquiries. He
flipped through the Bible asking many questions, which gave her the opportunity
to share the gospel with him. Akon is not from a Christian home so his interest
in the Bible is very exciting! He asked Nicole if we brought any other books.
As she looked through our bin, the gospel cube caught Akon’s attention and he
wanted her to explain it to him. They spent a good 15-20 minutes together as he
soaked in all of this Good News!
We love ministering to the children
through games and facepainting and often pray for opportunities to share the
gospel in a way they can understand and receive. This seemed to be one of those
special opportunities and we are thankful for what God is doing in his heart.
Please pray that the seeds we've sown go deep, and that Akon and many other
kids would give their lives to Jesus. Thank you!
